Multiscreen video platform provider MatrixStream has introduced a new cloud-based over-the-top (OTT) solution for IPTV operators.

The new MatrixCloud OTT is designed to allow pay-TV operators to launch skinny channel bundles and subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) to complement existing IPTV offerings, or to release a standalone video package to bundle with high-margin broadband and wireless services.

The MatrixCloud OTT platform includes operator-branded apps and clients for Android and iOS mobile phones and tablets, PCs, Macs, Apple TV boxes, Android TV boxes, Roku, Chromecast and Amazon Fire; support for up 100 live linear channels in each 42u rack with full MatrixCloud DVR support; SaaS capacity-based pricing that the company said delivers savings of up to 80% over typical per-user pricing and hardware service agreements; targeted advertising across all user devices; and cloud-based operator BSS and OSS with integrated voucher payment, multiple currencies and third-party mobile money support.
